Poison

This song talks about a toxic relationship or an experience of emotional or physical addiction. The lyrics describe how someone feels trapped by a force they consider “a poison without cure.” Despite knowing that this influence is harmful (“my friends say stay away”), the narrator feels unable to detach from it, suggesting a strong inner struggle.

The addiction or dependency manifests physically and emotionally: “I can feel my veins now,” “I cannot detach,” “my limbs are getting blue,” conveying a sense of both physical and mental deterioration. Additionally, the desire to “need something to cure” or “need to get some food” might be a metaphor for a void they are trying to fill with this person or thing that consumes them.

The final line, “we can go to my place if you want,” adds an ambiguous tone, as if the narrator is caught in a cycle where, despite the suffering, they seek out what hurts them again.

It explores the conflicting feelings of someone who knows they’re in a harmful situation but can’t avoid returning to it, whether it’s a destructive relationship or a metaphor for addiction.

You are a poisonWithout cureAnd your symptomsAre too soonI just like whenYou stayBut my friends sayStay away

Don’t don’t let me back nowI can feel my veins nowYou are inside my head nowI cannot detach nowI need something to cureI need to get some foodI need I just need youAnd I cannot go through

I just feel numb(I just feel numb)‘Cuz of youAnd my limbs are(And my limbs are)Getting blueYou make me fall apartI and don’t want to dieBut I have no redemptionAnd I don’t know the time

Don’t don’t let me back nowI can feel my veins nowYou are inside my head nowI cannot detach nowI need something to cureI need to get some foodI need I just need youAnd I cannot go through

(What are we doing next?)(We can go to my place if you want)
